Survival means compromise | Closed

Casey blushed gently, she was glad to hear he hadn't just fallen for how she looked. She liked to think she was much more than that but often worried that perhaps she wasn't. She nodded gently "yeah that all sounds good.. but I uh- honestly I don't really want to look in to it Jonathan" she said, hoping it didn't make her seem heartless.

She just didn't want to find any more of them the same way as Daniel or Kyle.

Jonathan nodded lightly, "Okay, we'll keep to looking for supplies then, if someone pops up on our search, we'll see what happens," he said lightly. He took her hand, "thank you for this, it was really nice," he said softly. He looked to the window, noticing the sun was dipping behind the treeline.

@ Aoibhe

Casey chuckled lightly "it came from a can, it really wasn't any hassle" she told him, picking up his bowl and carrying it towards the sink along with her own. She turned to face him, leaning against the counter. "Jonathan, be honest with me... What did you think of me before all this?" She asked him gently.

@ A Drop On the Window

Jonathan smiled softly, "I meant the date," he teased her. He sat back and looked up at her. "Casey," he began softly, he didn't know how to handle this. "I honestly didn't like you much, you were popular and the popular kids treated me like a freak," he said lightly. He paused, "even though you never said anything or did anything yourself, it hurt that you just stood by and let it happen,' he admitted.

@ Aoibhe

Casey nodded, she figured that would be the case. Taking a deep breath she closed her eyes for a second,thinking. She didn't want to lie to him. "Jonathan... I have to be honest with you. I didn't just stand by, I guess it just looked that way. I um...I came up with that nickname" she said softlt, not able to meet his eyeline. "That's not all Jon... I was the one who made that video in 9th grade too... And the notes in your locker" she admitted biting down on her lip hard. Thinking back on it all now she felt like such an awful person, she hated that she had done that to him.

@ A Drop On the Window

Jonathan frowned softly, "Oh, I didn't know that," he said softly. He looked at her, "Thanks for telling me, I guess," he said lightly. He moved to the window looking out. It pained him to hear, she was involved in the teasing in a big way.

@ Aoibhe

Casey bit in to her lip hard, her eyes following him over to the window before resting on the floor. She sat in silence for a number of moments, trying to pull her thoughts together. "I'm really sorry Jonathan, I was being a bitch.. I wish of seen that sooner" she told him softly.

@ A Drop On the Window

Jonathan shrugged lightly, 'It's fine, none of that stuff matters anymore," he said softly. He kept his eyes looking out towards the darkness. He turned around, "we should get some sleep, if we're going to go into town tomorrow," he said lightly.

@ Aoibhe

Casey nodded softly, silently stripping down to get ready for bed. She lay down next to Jonathan on the bed, sighing as she could feel the tension radiating off of his body. She hated that she had made him feel so bad in the past. Her hand searched under the blanket for his hand, she just wanted some conformation that he didn't hate her.

@ A Drop On the Window

Jonathan was lying in the bed, the world hanging heavy on him. He took her hand, reaching over her body gently, and pulling her into a hug. "It's alright, all of that is in the past, right now, we need each other," he whispered softly. He kissed her neck gently, hoping to let her know, he wasn't holding a grudge.

@ Aoibhe

Casey smiled softly as her body melted against his. "Thank you" she whispered, turning to face him in the bed, gently swiping some of his hair out of his face. "I think we need to give you a haircut" she teased softly, kissing the tip of her nose.

@ A Drop On the Window

Jonathan blushed softly, "yeah maybe," he said softly. He blinked lightly, and kissed her lips softly holding her close. His arm sliding down her back slowly. "We should also look for clean sheets and clothes when we're in town," he said softly.

He still did want to make love with her again, he'd fallen for her, but he didn't want to pressure her into anything.

@ Aoibhe

Casey nodded gently at his suggestion, but she wasn't truly listening. She was too busy pressing her lips against his a little harder, gripping the side of his face as if she never wanted to let go. "Thank you for being here" she whispered against his skin as she pressed her bodfy close to his.

@ A Drop On the Window

Jonathan nodded gently, "There's nowhere I'd rather be," he said softly, between kisses. His hand slipped up the back of her shirt slowly, rubbing her back gently. He felt himself grow aroused in his own boxers. He pulled back and looked at her gently.

"I wish we had been friends before all of this mess," he said softly

@ Aoibhe

Casey looked down at him, a sad smile tugging at her lips. She kissed him gently once more, shaking her head gently. "I don't " she whispered gently, before kissing him again. Turning on to her back as she felt him tense up. "I don't mean that in a bad way Jon.. I just mean... Well. If we had been this wouldn't be happening right now. I was a different person back then" she said with a shrug.

@ A Drop On the Window

Jonathan smiled gently, "well I suppose you're right, I'm just glad we've gotten to know each other finally," he said softly. He braced himself above her, on the bed, and lent in to kiss her. His hand running up her leg slowly, "do you want to do this again, or are you not in the mood?" he asked gently.

@ Aoibhe

Casey smiled up at him, laughing gently as he asked her if this was okay. She simply pressed her lips to his as an answer. She thought it was sweet just how much he thought about other people's feelings over his own. She let out a soft moan as there hips grinded together, her hand running in to his hair.

@ A Drop On the Window

Jonathan moaned gently, feeling her grind up against his hardening member. He looked into her eyes, and smiled. His hand drifted it's way up to the band of her pants, and he struggled to undo the button on her pants. With a click, they loosened, and he moved to pull the off slowly. "God you're amazing Casey," he said gently.

@ Aoibhe

Casey smiled softly, her hands winding their way under his t-shirt. She gave a soft laugh as he called her amazing. "God I wish I'd had you around sooner, I'd love to be complimented every time I take my pants off" she teased softly, before starting to undo his, gently pushing them off.

@ A Drop On the Window

Jonathan blushed gently at her comment, but continued to gently slide her pants off. His hand moved up to gently rub her sex, and he looked down at her. "What, you were with people that didn't love every part of you," he asked her gently, "shame on them,"
